There are several techniques aimed at eyebrow tattoo removal and these include glycolic acid, saline, clay, dermabrasion and laser, which are among the most common. There is no technique that works instantly, and therefore it is good to give the process enough time, regardless of the technique you attempt your eyebrow tattoo removal with.

Reasons for Considering Eyebrow Tattoo Removal
Different people have different reasons for wanting to get rid of their eyebrow tattoos. To some, it can be the dissatisfaction of the outcome, especially when the tattoo artist fails to balance the two sides. The problem with out-of-sync eyebrows is that you will be left with a funny, permanent look despite your actual mood. For others, the reason for considering eyebrow tattoo removal can be because of health issues emanating from a reaction with the tattoo ink or complications from the procedure. The problem with allergic reactions to tattoo ink and dyes is that, unlike other allergens where the solution is to just avoid the allergen, the tattoo ink is permanently embedded in the skin, and therefore no way to avoid it other than have it removed.

What to Expect During Eyebrow Tattoo Removal

There is one thing that is important to understand; eyebrow tattoo removal, just as with any other tattoo removal exercise, is a process and not a onetime procedure. It will take time and more sessions with your tattoo removal specialist to have the tattoo gone completely or faded to a level that you are comfortable with. The laser removal technique offers greater success rates with minimal side effects. During your eyebrow tattoo removal process, you can expect some pain and discomfort depending on the location of your tattoo, and a topical anesthesia may be applied depending on your pain threshold. With the laser treatment, you can expect to have your eyes covered with protective shields and have a test patch done to determine the most effective laser energy for your skin. After each session, you can expect the tattoo area to be covered with a patch or a bandage and a topical antibiotic ointment prescribed.
